Princess Cruises
Princess Cruises offers cruises to the Mexican Riviera that include such ports of call as Acapulco, Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan, Ensenada and Puerto Vallarta. Along the way, you'll see such sights as the La Quebrada cliff divers of Acapulco, deep-water lagoons of Zihuatanejo, sandy white beaches of Mazatlan, and humpback and gray whales off Cabo San Lucas.
Princess Cruises has five ships that cruise to the Mexican Riviera, each with its own special amenities. On the Coral Princess, you'll find Sabatini's Italian restaurant, the Bayou Cafe & Steakhouse, a European-style casino, a cigar lounge and a retro martini bar. The Island Princess offers staterooms with ocean views, more than 700 balconies, a Promenade Deck and entertainment lounges. The Sapphire Princess has four swimming pools, boutique shops, Lotus Spa and formal dining rooms and specialty restaurants. While the Sea Princess offers a more intimate experience with its smaller capacity, it doesn't skimp on the amenities. The Star Princess features an entire deck of mini-suites, multiple restaurants and a nightclub.
